#' Convert Strings Between Given Encodings
#'
#' @description
#' These functions convert a character vector between encodings.
#'
#' @details
#' \code{stri_conv} is an alias for \code{stri_encode}.
#'
#' These two functions aim to replace \R's \code{\link{iconv}}.
#' It is not only faster, but also
#' works in the same manner on all platforms.
#'
#'
#' Please refer to \code{\link{stri_enc_list}} for the list
#' of supported encodings and \link{stringi-encoding}
#' for a general discussion.
#'
#' If \code{str} is a character vector
#' and \code{from} is either missing, \code{""}, or \code{NULL},
#' then the declared encodings are used
#' (see \code{\link{stri_enc_mark}}) -- in such a case \code{bytes}-declared
#' strings are disallowed.
#' Otherwise, the internal encoding declarations are ignored and
#' a converter selected with \code{from} is used.
#'
#' On the other hand, for \code{str} being a raw vector
#' or a list of raw vectors,
#' we assume that the input encoding is the current default encoding
#' as given by \code{\link{stri_enc_get}}.
#'
#' For \code{to_raw=FALSE}, the output
#' strings have always marked encodings according to the target converter
#' used (as specified by \code{to}) and the current default Encoding
#' (\code{ASCII}, \code{latin1}, \code{UTF-8}, \code{native},
#' or \code{bytes} in all other cases).
#'
#'
#' Note that problems may occur if \code{to} indicates e.g UTF-16 or UTF-32,
#' as the output strings may have embedded NULs.
#' In such cases use \code{to_raw=TRUE} and consider
#' specifying a byte order marker (BOM) for portability reasons
#' (e.g. set \code{UTF-16} or \code{UTF-32} which automatically
#' adds BOMs).
#'
#' Note that \code{stri_encode(as.raw(data), "encodingname")}
#' is a wise substitute for \code{\link{rawToChar}}.
#'
#' In the current version of \pkg{stringi}, if an incorrect code point is found
#' on input, it is replaced by the default (for that target encoding)
#' substitute character and a warning is generated.
#'
#'
#' @param str character vector, a raw vector, or
#' a list of \code{raw} vectors to be converted
#' @param from input encoding:
#'       \code{NULL} or \code{""} for default encoding
#'       or internal encoding marks usage (see Details);
#'       otherwise, a single string with encoding name,
#'       see \code{\link{stri_enc_list}}
#' @param to target encoding:
#'       \code{NULL} or \code{""} for default encoding
#'       (see \code{\link{stri_enc_get}}),
#'       or a single string with encoding name
#' @param to_raw single logical value; indicates whether a list of raw vectors
#' shall be returned rather than a character vector
#'
#' @return If \code{to_raw} is \code{FALSE},
#' then a character vector with encoded strings (and sensible
#' encoding marks) is returned.
#' Otherwise, a list of raw vectors is produced.

#' @title
#' Convert Strings To UTF-32
#'
#' @description
#' UTF-32 is a 32bit encoding in which each Unicode code point
#' corresponds to exactly one integer value.
#' This function converts a character vector to a list
#' of integer vectors so that e.g.
#' individual code points may easily be accessed, changed, etc.
#'
#' @details
#' See \code{\link{stri_enc_fromutf32}} for a dual operation.
#'
#' This function is roughly equivalent to a vectorized call
#' to \code{\link{utf8ToInt}(enc2utf8(str))}.
#' If you want a list of raw vector on output,
#' use \code{\link{stri_encode}}.
#'
#' Unlike \code{utf8ToInt}, if improper UTF-8 byte sequences are detected,
#' a corresponding element is set to NULL and a warning is given,
#' see also \code{\link{stri_enc_toutf8}} for a method to deal with such cases.
#'
#' @param str character vector (or an object coercible to such a vector)
#'        to be converted
#' @return Returns a list of integer vectors.
#' Missing values are converted to \code{NULL}s.
#'
#' @family encoding_conversion

   .Call("stri_enc_toutf32", str, PACKAGE="stringi")

#' @title
#' Convert From UTF-32
#'
#' @description
#' This function converts integer vectors,
#' representing sequences of UTF-32 code points, to UTF-8 strings.
#'
#' @details
#' UTF-32 is a 32bit encoding in which each Unicode code point
#' corresponds to exactly one integer value.
#'
#' This function roughly acts like a vectorized version of
#' \code{\link{intToUtf8}}. As usual in \pkg{stringi},
#' it returns character strings in UTF-8.
#' See \code{\link{stri_enc_toutf32}} for a dual operation.
#'
#' If an incorrect code point is given, a warning is generated
#' and a string is set to \code{NA}.
#' Note that \code{0}s are not allowed in \code{vec}, as they are used
#' internally to mark the end of a string (in the C API).
#'
#'
#' See also \code{\link{stri_encode}} for decoding arbitrary byte sequences
#' from any given encoding.
#'
#'
#' @param vec list of integer vectors (or objects coercible to such vectors)
#'    or \code{NULL}s. For convenience, a single integer vector can also
#'    be given.
#' @return Returns a character vector (in UTF-8).
#' \code{NULL}s in the input list are converted to \code{NA_character_}.
#'
#' @family encoding_conversion
#' @export
stri_enc_fromutf32 <- function(vec) {
   .Call("stri_enc_fromutf32", vec, PACKAGE="stringi")
}


#' @title
#' Convert Strings To UTF-8
#'
#' @description
#' Converts character strings with declared marked encodings
#' to UTF-8 strings.
#'
#' @details
#' If \code{is_unknown_8bit} is set to \code{FALSE} (the default),
#' then R encoding marks are used, see \code{\link{stri_enc_mark}}.
#' Bytes-marked strings will cause the function to fail.
#'
#' If a string is in UTF-8 and has a byte order mark (BOM),
#' then BOM will be silently removed from the output string.
#'
#' If default encoding is UTF-8, see \code{\link{stri_enc_get}},
#' then strings marked with \code{native} are -- for efficiency reasons --
#' returned as-is, i.e. with unchanged markings.
#' A similar behavior is observed when calling \code{\link{enc2utf8}}.
#'
#' For \code{is_unknown_8bit == TRUE}, if a string is declared to be neither in ASCII
#' nor in UTF-8, then all bytecodes > 127 are replaced with
#' the Unicode REPLACEMENT CHARACTER (\\Ufffd).
#' Note that the REPLACEMENT CHARACTER may be interpreted as Unicode
#' missing value for single characters.
#' Here, a \code{bytes}-marked string is assumed to be encoded
#' by an 8-bit encoding such that it has ASCII as its subset.
#'
#' What is more, in both cases setting \code{validate} to \code{TRUE}
#' or \code{NA} validates the resulting UTF-8 byte stream.
#' If \code{validate == TRUE}, then
#' in case of any incorrect byte sequences, they will be
#' replaced with REPLACEMENT CHARACTER.
#' This option may be used in a (very rare in practice) case
#' in which you want to fix an invalid UTF-8 byte sequence.
#' For \code{NA}, a bogus string will be replaced with a missing value.
#'
#' @param str character vector to be converted
#' @param is_unknown_8bit single logical value, see Details
#' @param validate single logical value (can be \code{NA}), see Details
#' @return Returns a character vector.
#'
#' @family encoding_conversion
#' @export
stri_enc_toutf8 <- function(str, is_unknown_8bit=FALSE, validate=FALSE) {
   .Call("stri_enc_toutf8", str, is_unknown_8bit, validate, PACKAGE="stringi")
}


#' @title
#' Convert Strings To Native Encoding
#'
#' @description
#' Converts character strings with declared encodings
#' to Native encoding.
#'
#' @details
#' This function just calls \code{\link{stri_encode}(str, NULL, NULL)}.
#' Current native encoding can be read with \code{\link{stri_enc_get}}.
#' Character strings declared to be in \code{bytes} encoding will fail here.
#'
#' Note that if working in a UTF-8 environment,
#' resulting strings will be marked with \code{UTF-8}
#' and not \code{native}, see \code{\link{stri_enc_mark}}.
#'
#' @param str character vector to be converted
#' @return Returns a character vector.
#'
#' @family encoding_conversion
#' @export
stri_enc_tonative <- function(str) {
   stri_encode(str, NULL, NULL)
}


#' @title
#' Convert To ASCII
#'
#' @description
#' This function converts input strings to ASCII,
#' i.e. to character strings consisting of bytes not greater than 127.
#'
#' @details
#' All code points greater than 127 are replaced with ASCII SUBSTITUTE
#' CHARACTER (0x1A).
#' \R encoding declarations are always used to determine
#' which encoding is assumed for each input, see \code{\link{stri_enc_mark}}.
#' In incorrect byte sequences are found in UTF-8 byte
#' streams, a warning is generated.
#'
#' A \code{bytes}-marked string is assumed to be represented
#' by a 8-bit encoding such that it has ASCII as its subset
#' (a common assumption in R itself).
#'
#' Note that the SUBSTITUTE CHARACTER (\code{\\x1a == \\032}) may be interpreted
#' as ASCII missing value for single characters.
#'
#' @param str character vector to be converted
#' @return Returns a character vector.
#'
#' @family encoding_conversion
#' @export
stri_enc_toascii <- function(str) {
   .Call("stri_enc_toascii", str, PACKAGE="stringi")
